Moroccan political parties have denounced what they see as a coordinated foreign media campaign against the country and its institutions. They rejected these «hostile maneuvers» and stressed the need for national unity behind King Mohammed VI. Political reactions in Morocco have continued to grow in response to what officials describe as a «hostile foreign campaign» against the kingdom and its institutions, led by the French newspaper Le Monde and the group «Jabaroot» on social media. Parties across the spectrum rejected what they called «coordinated attacks», voicing support for state institutions and reaffirming their commitment to national principles. The Constitutional Union Party said in a statement that Morocco is facing «a new wave of media campaigns targeting its symbols and core interests», describing these efforts as failed attempts to undermine the country's stability and progress. It stressed that Morocco has become a regional model for security, democracy, and development, and is recognized internationally as a reliable partner. The National Rally of Independents insisted that such campaigns would not shake the bond between Moroccans and the king. It emphasized that the development path led by King Mohammed VI is moving forward and urged stronger national unity in the face of attempts to harm the country. For its part, the Istiqlal Party warned that «enemies of Morocco's territorial integrity» are trying to disrupt the progress made under the king's leadership by «spreading lies and misinformation». These efforts, it said, reflect «resentment toward the country's steady path of development and stability». The Popular Movement also denounced what it called «fabricated media campaigns» against Morocco and its symbols, saying they stem from adversaries of its territorial integrity. The party stressed that Morocco, rooted in its core values and national constants, continues to move forward on its democratic and development path, and that any conspiracy will fail in the face of the state's strength. Meanwhile, Bayane Al Yaoume, the newspaper linked to the Party of Progress and Socialism, devoted an editorial to Le Monde, accusing it of abandoning professional standards. The paper argued that its coverage relied on «rumors and misinformation» and amounted to «blatant bias against Morocco and its institutions», harming both its credibility and professional ethics. Abdelilah Benkirane, Secretary-General of the Justice and Development Party, also spoke out in a Facebook live broadcast. He accused Le Monde of trying to «sow doubt in the bond between the people and the king», insisting that Moroccans have always remained loyal to their monarchs. He recalled that «previous conspiracies and coup attempts failed thanks to the people's vigilance and their trust in the monarchy». Responding to claims made by «Jaberoot» about the Crown Prince, Benkirane said the heir to the throne represents Moroccans' hopes for the future. He condemned what he described as interference in the prince's private life, adding: «If there were good intentions, the King himself should have been approached directly instead of trying to sow doubt between the people and their institutions». He ended by urging Moroccans «not to fall for these allegations, and to ignore rumors and conspiracies».
